can i get a tax break for heating with wood or corn?

Question

We heat with wood and or corn. Am wondering if anyone can tell me if i can claim either as tax deduction.

Answer 1

You can get a tax credit (not a deduction) for installing a more energy efficient heater the year you install it, but heating fuel, regardless of the type, is not tax deductible at all.

Answer 2

Why would you for wood. It not an alternative fuel source. I doubt for corn even if you convert it into biofuel.
